The upcoming facility will complement the existing capacity with an additional 15 megawatts, eventually reaching 21 MW upon full build-out. ATL02, the new data center, will connect via dark fiber to the company\u2019s other Atlanta facility. The company tapped Megaport, as it did in its recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/edgeconnex-adds-21mw-to-denver-facility\/\">21 MW Denver data center expansion<\/a>, to provide network deployment services.<\/p>\n<p>The upcoming ATL02 will support up to five data halls. EdgeConneX\u2019s typical EDC facilities comprise between 5,000 and 10,000 square feet of raised floor space. Power density can reach up to 300 watts per square foot, delivered via feeds with redundant power distribution units. The campus will support tenants\u2019 needs for cloud, content, network and IoT services. The carrier-neutral EDC\u2019s network providers include CenturyLink, Cogent, Comcast, Level 3, Pilot Fiber, Southern Telecom, Crowne Castle, Windstream and Zayo, among others.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>By expanding existing edge facilities and developing them into regional data center campus environments in markets like Atlanta and Miami, EdgeConneX demonstrates the rapid momentum of the edge. We will continue to expand our local footprint on a highly distributed global basis to ensure our customers can operate competitively in today\u2019s latency-sensitive, highly proximate, data-driven market,<\/em>\u201d said Bryan Weeks, general manager for the southeast at EdgeConneX, in a prepared statement.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image courtesy of EdgeConneX<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The company&#8217;s typical EDC deployment features between 5,000 and 10,000 square feet of raised floor space.
